"Border security is national security. That's what it's all about," Hegseth told Jones during his first trip to the border since being confirmed. "And then also to see the troops. This is what we're going to do everywhere we go, here at home, overseas, see the troops, make sure they're locked in on their mission, make sure they know how much we appreciate what they do."
"That's what the president wants, that's what the American people voted for, and we're going to deliver it," he continued.
